"We're going to look at the potential options that North Korea has. Whether or not they're serious about negotiating, whether or not they're willing to come back to us, and whether or not they're committed to giving up their nuclear weapons program and related programs," Bolton said on Fox News Business.
Mr. Bolton emphasized that if North Korea "doesn't want to do this," then US President Donald Trump will not let North Korea escape economic sanctions.
"We are looking at the possibility of strengthening these sanctions," said National Security Advisor John Bolton.
